What does the '.020' in the part number mean?

The '.020' in the part number 41226.020 indicates that these piston rings are 0.020 inches larger than the standard size. This is common for engines that have been bored out during a rebuild to ensure a proper fit and seal.

Are these rings suitable for a standard bore engine?

These rings are specifically sized at 0.020 inches undersize. If your engine has not been bored out and requires standard size rings, you will need to find a different part number. Always confirm your engine's bore size before ordering rings.

What is the benefit of chrome-plated piston rings?

Chrome plating on piston rings helps to increase their hardness and wear resistance. This can lead to a longer service life for the rings and the engine, especially in applications where durability is a key concern.
